My first commission!

I’m starting to think that its the third post that’s the hardest!!

Since sharing some of my crafty designs on FacebookI’ve been beavering away making a few bags for some of my lovely friends. To be honest it took me by surprise that my friends wanted to pay for my crafts. So… here are a few I made for my old school friend Rachel. The over the shoulder bag is made using Cath Kidston’s strawberry print fabric, I managed to source some remnants on good old Ebay. The shopper is made from Amy Butler’s Love range called ‘Paradise Garden Periwinkle’. What do you think? Do you like?

I also managed to find time in between work and riding the horses to design a simple over the shoulder bag with some fabric I bought from fabric rehab called Winchester Folk Festival – perfect for those Boutique Festivals.
